Description
1889-CC Morgan Dollar, MS61
Key Carson City Issue
1889-CC $1 MS61 ANACS. VAM-3. CC Tilted Left. One of nine
VAM varieties listed for the key-date 1889-CC Morgan dollar,
identified by date and mintmark placement. A diagonal die line in
the T in LIBERTY confirms the attribution. This piece is sharp and
satiny with light golden toning. Grade-limiting abrasions are
minor, mainly consisting of a few hairlines and slide marks. As the
key date in the Carson City Morgans, the 1889-CC is widely sought
after in all grades. However, Mint State examples are the most
elusive and coveted. This piece is quite pleasing for the
entry-level numeric Mint State grade. Housed in a small-sized ANACS
holder.Ex: Brady Island Collection (Heritage, 2/2021), lot 92113.
